Steyr's Golden Age is on the way to heavy truck new platform


Steyr led the development of the heavy-duty truck industry for more than 20 years and is now becoming increasingly weak.

Every heavy truck company, regardless of its close relationship with the Steyr platform, has to go to Steyr to varying degrees; Steyr's main component manufacturers are also changing their positions.

Steyr's "steerization" system is divided into two basic ways: on the one hand, it accelerates the launch of a new heavy-duty platform; on the other hand, it constantly "faces up" on the basis of the old Steyr platform. Instead of the system, the "Steyr elements" in their products are continuously reduced. For parts and components companies, the products of the Fisitalia system have been added.

Steyr Systems: New Platforms Accelerate Volume (All-Industrial Chain)

Steyr-based companies – China National Heavy Duty Truck Group, Shaanxi Auto Heavy Duty Truck and Shang Yihong – have almost the same cab in the starting products: sharp military vehicles. However, at present, among the products of these three companies, the brand-new non-Steyr cab has occupied the mainstream, and the Steyr cab has also been constantly face-lifted, and the gap with the original shape is increasing.

Since the separation of these three companies, Shaanxi Automobile and CNHTC have successively introduced new cabs. Shaanxi Automobile introduced the Man F2000 model in 2003, and China National Heavy Duty Truck took Volvo's cab. For several years afterwards, the two companies were co-existing in two types of cabs: Shaanxi Automobile's Delong series, which was improved on the basis of the Man F2000; Heavy Truck's Howo series, was based on Volvo's cab. Make improvements.

In addition, all three companies have also improved the Steyr cab to varying degrees, and formed their own products: Steyr King of Heavy Trucks, Aolong of Shaanxi Auto and King Kong of Hongyan. The products of these three types of Steyr cabs are still occupying a place in these three companies until now. However, these three Steyr cabs have been constantly face-lifted. Now it is hard to find them. Look like.

Speaking of the new platform, Hongyan has introduced the Iveco model since its joint venture with SAIC and Iveco in 2007. At the same time, it also introduced Fiat's engine Corso 9. In 2009, Hongyan Jieshi was listed, and since then, the Iveco platform has gradually begun to In 2010, the new King Kong was listed. The new King Kong is Iveco's cab, but the chassis system is still Steyr. In recent years, the sales volume of Jessie models has been increasing year by year. In 2014, Jessie has almost occupied half of Yishang’s red, and in the original Steyr cab's Lao Jingang’s sales of only 2,000 vehicles in 2014.

Sinotruck introduced German Mann as a shareholder in 2009. At the same time, the introduction of the Man TGA platform includes a total of 10 types of front axles from the engine, axles, and heavy trucks, 9 rear axles, and 4 transfer axles. At the same time, the right to use the production technology of Euro III, Euro IV and Euro V engines on the TGA platform is also included in the cooperation agreement. After five years of digestion, absorption, and application in different models, CNHTC has completely established a brand-new “Man” platform, which includes not only the cab, engine and axle, but also a series of support for MAN models. The system of parts and components: such as SKF bearings, ZF gearboxes, in addition, has also developed a series of new partners, including Alcoa's wheels and Pirelli's tires.

In 2014, it was the year when CTC Man Products entered the market. The sales volume of MAN platform products reached 10,000 units. In 2015, CNHTC hopes that MAN platform products can exceed 30,000 vehicles and occupy 1/3 of the sales volume. In addition, Sinotruk also acquired Huizhong’s heavy-duty truck platform. The Mercedes-Benz model that was originally introduced has now become the Haohao series of heavy-duty trucks, but the sales volume is not large.

Shaanxi Automobile decided to restart the stove outside of the Steyr platform after it was separated from the Heavy Duty Truck, and later introduced the Man F2000 cab. In 2003, Shaanxi Automobile Delong F2000 went offline; in 2005, Shaanxi Automobile and Cummins joint venture engine company was established. If it follows this trajectory, Shaanxi Automobile may be the earliest company to go Steyr. However, it is unpredictable that in 2005, Weichai purchased a 51% stake in Shaanxi Auto, which was held by the Hunan Torch. Since then, Shaanxi Automobile has become the most “Stall” company with its gold supply chain. For: Weichai Engine + Fast Transmission + Hande Axle. In the ensuing days, Shaanxi Auto continued to grow and eventually grew into an “other” in the heavy truck industry where “not joint ventures, no products were introduced, and performance was continuously improved”. In 2009, the newly upgraded DeLong F3000 was launched. Subsequently, DeLong M2000 and DeLong M3000 serial listing. In 2014, the annual business meeting launched a new generation of models DeLong X3000.

In 2014, DeLong series models have become the main products of Shaanxi Auto. In terms of appearance, Sharon Delong products have nothing to do with Steyr, and Aulong's share in Shaanxi products has further decreased.

Festel Department: Self-made parts strengthened

The companies that have relations with Steyr but have relations with Steyr: Liberation, Dongfeng, Auman, JAC, Valin, Beiben, and Universiade. The cabs of these companies are not Steyr, but parts are large or Steyr series products are used in part. In recent years, the proportion of home-made components has also increased. For example, FAW Group's Xichai and Dachai, Dongfeng Group's production machines and Dongfeng Cummins, Futian Auman's use of Foton Cummins and Mercedes-Benz engines, Valin has a full set of Hanma power systems.

For these non-Styrian brands, from the aspect of appearance, it is not relevant to Steyr. With the introduction of other suppliers or self-manufacturing of the company's chassis system, it is now becoming more and more intrinsic with Steyr.

In addition, in the heavy truck industry, there are joint trucks that have entered the market soon and Sichuan Modern, which has just entered the market this year. The model of the combined truck is a brand-new design, and the combined engine and Yuchai jointly produce the joint power; the newly-introduced Sichuan Modern Chuanghu in 2014 has nothing to do with the Steyr system. Not only is the model completely modern in Korea, even The engine is also modern (now there is also a distribution Yuchai engine). These new entrants have nothing to do with Steyr. Their entry is also a dilution of Steyr's share in the heavy truck industry.

In the final analysis, it is now possible that even the most desperate is Shanxi Grand Canal. It is said that the chairman of the Universiade, Yuan Qin Shan, is now a guest of Weichai. Who would have thought that this company, which spent relatively high prices in 2009 and 2010 to buy Weichai engines, is now the most outspoken supporter?

Steyr Department of parts and components company "to Steyr"

In addition, it should be said that Steyr components themselves are changing their face.

For example, Weichai, an auxiliary supplier that accounts for more than one-third of the heavy truck engine market, is also developing a new platform. Weichai introduced the Blue Engine series in 2008. This engine is a product of cooperation with Austrian AVL company. Although it is still inextricably linked with the original Steyr engine, it is a platform for redevelopment. After all, the existence itself is going to Steyr.

Moreover, Fast Transmission has a 70% share in the heavy truck market. However, Fast had introduced Eaton’s twin countershaft transmissions in the 1980s. Since then, it has continued to improve on this basis, while Eaton in the United States and Steyr in Austria have nothing to do with it. Therefore, it should be said that the On the box, the entire industry has already been “to Steyr”.

Besides axles, the Steyr Department Hande axle itself is in the entire heavy-duty truck industry, and its supporting share is not high, mainly for Shaanxi, while Dongfeng, Liberation, Heavy Duty Truck, Auman, Shang Yihong, Jianghuai, Hualing and Beiben basically has its own products for the company's internal or equity-shared axles. There aren't many models for using the Hande Axle. In addition, in recent years, Hande has also introduced the Manchester Axle, and Mansha Bridge’s share in Hande Axle has also increased.

Therefore, on the one hand, Steyr-based companies have introduced new platforms. On the one hand, non-tank Steyr vehicle companies have begun to reduce their support for Steyr-based parts and components companies. On the other hand, Steyr Zero Parts companies themselves are also undergoing changes.

Steyr's golden age is going away.
